  3. Vocabulary compound inequality intersection union

  4. The inequalities you have seen so far are simple inequalities. When two simple inequalities are combined into one statement by the words AND or OR, the result is called a compound inequality.

  5. 6.0 is less than or equal to pH level 6.5 is less than or equal to 5.9 6.0 6.1 6.2 6.3 6.5 6.4 Example 1 The pH level of a popular shampoo is between 6.0 and 6.5 inclusive. Write a compound inequality to show the pH levels of this shampoo. Graph the solutions. Let p be the pH level of the shampoo. 6.0 ≤ p ≤6.5 6.0 ≤ p ≤ 6.5

  6. 1.0 is less than or equal to chlorine 3.0 is less than or equal to 0 1 2 3 4 6 5 Example 2 The free chlorine in a pool should be between 1.0 and 3.0 parts per million inclusive. Write a compound inequality to show the levels that are within this range. Graph the solutions. Let c be the chlorine level of the pool. 1.0 ≤ c ≤3.0 1.0 ≤ c ≤ 3.0

  7. In this diagram, oval A represents some integer solutions of x < 10 and oval B represents some integer solutions of x > 0. The overlapping region represents numbers that belong in both ovals. Those numbers are solutions of both x < 10 andx > 0.

  8. You can graph the solutions of a compound inequality involving AND by using the idea of an overlapping region. The overlapping region is called the intersection and shows the numbers that are solutions of both inequalities.

  9. Directions: Solve the compound inequality and graph the solutions.

  10. –1 – 1 – 1 Example 3 –5 < x + 1 < 2 Since 1 is added to x, subtract 1 from each part of the inequality. –5 < x + 1 < 2 –6 < x < 1 Graph –6 < x. Graph x < 1. Graph the intersection by finding where the two graphs overlap. –8 –2 –10 –6 –4 0 2 4 6 8 10

  11. 8 < 3x – 1 ≤ 11 +1 +1 +1 9 < 3x ≤ 12 Example 4 8 < 3x – 1 ≤ 11 Since 1 is subtracted from 3x, add 1 to each part of the inequality. Since x is multiplied by 3, divide each part of the inequality by 3 to undo the multiplication. 3 < x ≤ 4

Since n is multiplied by 3, divide each part of the inequality by 3 to undo the multiplication. Graph –3 ≤ n. Graph n < 2. Graph the intersection by finding where the two graphs overlap. –3 –2 0 1 2 3 4 5 –5 –4 –1

  15. In this diagram, circle A represents some integer solutions of x < 0, and circle B represents some integer solutions of x > 10. The combined shaded regions represent numbers that are solutions of either x < 0 or x >10.

  16. > You can graph the solutions of a compound inequality involving OR by using the idea of combining regions. The combine regions are called the union and show the numbers that are solutions of either inequality.

  17. –8 –8 –8 −8 Example 7 8 + t ≥ 7 OR 8 + t < 2 8 + t ≥ 7 OR 8 + t < 2 Solve each simple inequality. t ≥ –1 OR t < –6 Graph t ≥ –1. Graph t < –6. Graph the union by combining the regions. –8 –2 –10 –6 –4 0 2 4 6 8 10

  21. Every solution of a compound inequality involving AND must be a solution of both parts of the compound inequality. If no numbers are solutions of both simple inequalities, then the compound inequality has no solutions. The solutions of a compound inequality involving OR are not always two separate sets of numbers. There may be numbers that are solutions of both parts of the compound inequality.

  22. Directions: Write the compound inequality shown by the graph.

  23. Example 11 The shaded portion of the graph is not between two values, so the compound inequality involves OR. On the left, the graph shows an arrow pointing left, so use either < or ≤. The solid circle at –8 means –8 is a solution so use ≤. x ≤ –8 On the right, the graph shows an arrow pointing right, so use either > or ≥. The empty circle at 0 means that 0 is not a solution, so use >. x > 0 The compound inequality is x ≤ –8 OR x > 0.

  24. Example 12 The shaded portion of the graph is between the values –2 and 5, so the compound inequality involves AND. The shaded values are on the right of –2, so use > or ≥. The empty circle at –2 means –2 is not a solution, so use >. m > –2 The shaded values are to the left of 5, so use < or ≤. The empty circle at 5 means that 5 is not a solution so use <. m < 5 The compound inequality is m > –2 AND m < 5 (or -2 < m < 5).

  25. Example 13 The shaded portion of the graph is between the values –9 and –2, so the compound inequality involves AND. The shaded values are on the right of –9, so use > or . The empty circle at –9 means –9 is not a solution, so use >. x > –9 The shaded values are to the left of –2, so use < or ≤. The empty circle at –2 means that –2 is not a solution so use <. x < –2 The compound inequality is –9 < x AND x < –2 (or –9 < x < –2).

  26. Example 14 The shaded portion of the graph is not between two values, so the compound inequality involves OR. On the left, the graph shows an arrow pointing left, so use either < or ≤. The solid circle at –3 means –3 is a solution, so use ≤. x ≤ –3 On the right, the graph shows an arrow pointing right, so use either > or ≥. The solid circle at 2 means that 2 is a solution, so use ≥. x ≥ 2 The compound inequality is x ≤ –3 OR x ≥ 2.
